WEBSITES FOR AUTHORS
Let Us Build Your Author Website
We love building author websites. After all, we have a published author on our team.
An author website is more than a business card.
It’s a direct portal to your book: for sales, reviews, blogs, chapter extracts and fame!
Effective Website Templates - Tailored To You
To keep your outlay as low as possible we offer 3 “template styles” – choose the one you prefer and we will tailor to your visuals: your book cover, and artwork, for example.
We love creating totally BESPOKE sites as well, but that’s a different service.
Every author site we build has these promotional pages:
Book Headliner
Your website will "sell" just like your cover
Book Extracts
A few extracts to whet the appetite

What Do We Charge?
We prefer to give you an all-in-one inclusive price for your website. So there are no surprises or unknowns.
Templated Websites
It’s £850 all in. Your site will be built using the WordPress platform and based on your choice from one of our author website templates. You give us the visuals and artwork – which usually means the books cover, front and back. We will creatively use this for page headers, borders and book images. We will import the copy you give us too, unless you want us to write it for you. That’s a separate service.
Bespoke Websites
Once we have consulted and you have told us exactly what you need, we will provide a fully inclusive cost. Completely bespoke sites start at £2,000 but the price will vary depending upon the functionality you require.
Hosting, Security, Backups And Ongoing Site Maintenance
It’s £20 per month. This includes hosting, core website files & any plugins updated daily; regular checks to ensure the site is performing as it should; daily backups and security overview. Minor updates to information on the site will be handled for you also. One email address is included eg yourname@yourwebsite.com.
Security
Yep. All of our sites have SSL certificates and will be protected by a robust security plugin to reduce the risk of the site being hackled or compromised in any way.
Updating
Great! You’re developing, growing, expanding, adapting, and hopefully and adding future books. Let us know what you need and we’ll quote.
